    I have Never Ever understood the Hype about Lowry's Paintings. To me they are just Childish and look like a 5 year old has done the painting. Personally I would not give 890 pence for this Painting, let alone £890,000.

    No doubt that everyone will disagree with me and will say it is a wonderful painting but I can not see it at all.

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.

    It was in London not in Wick
    Jings £890k could buy you a couple of streets in Wick complete with houses.

    I have not a lot of interest in art, but Lowry is one artist that I find stimulating.
